...which was one of those relatively rare moments when i do something else than work (snif) or pine (snif. am turning into bella swan with a slightly deranged edge. no, i don't want to be a vampire, probably for the simple reason i didn't meet one to torment enough). so, i saw the snow white of fire signs brand, which was FUN! the setting was appropriately dark and wonderful in the same time, the wicked queen was spectacular. unfortunately, snow white is somehow constantly shadowed by these other characters. but all in all, i sort of liked it even though poor snow white is no match for the awesome of charlize. but then again we have a love triangle with thor the huntsman (and you know what? the guy snogs better than the duke's son. also, he's more convincing when he cries) and the duke's son who is also a prince, whatever, he's v cute though. and he snogs the snow girl too, but unfortunately he's not a leo so his kissing can't bring her back to life, which was probably one of the biggest surprises. i mean, i am still cheering for the young duke for the simple reason that he is a duke and in the long run more useful to life in general than a drunkard huntsman who spits a lot.
..of course, one might say that the huntsman with no manners brought our heroine back to life and if he wasn't there, we'd have no story to speak of so we can't be ungrateful to him. plus he cries better, as i mentioned earlier. and probably with a lot of determination, he could be taught to behave appropriately.
also, i would like to mention that snow white is v aries in her rallying the troops and marching them to the battlefield. and probably behind the scenes she is pining for the huntsman and will hunt him down with a determination of an angry god just after she finishes the whole "taking back the throne and the kingdom" business.

so there's these 2 movies coming out next year based on the snow white story. the really fun thing is that in one of them, namely "snow white and the huntsman", the leading ladies are fire signs and in the other one "the brother's grimm: snow white" the leads are water signs. the posters are incredibly relevant:
